Abstract
Morris-Thorne wormholes with a cosmological constant Λ have been studied extensively, even allowing Λ to be replaced by a space variable scalar. These wormholes cannot exist, however, if Λ is both space and time dependent. Such a Λ will therefore act as a topological censor. While not likely to have a bearing on the present, possible cosmological consequences of inflation cannot be discounted.



Keywords and phrases

wormholes, topological censorship.
